Welcome to Oak Class 2025/26
Oak Class is a mixture of children from Year 5 and Year 6 who learn together first thing in the morning, for English lessons and every afternoon.
In the mornings we start the day with mental maths or quiet reading, followed by a short time of prayer before we split into separate year groups for Maths.
The rest of our morning and our afternoons are spent studying a variety of texts in English and exploring a range of subjects across the wider curriculum.
Spring Term 26
In Science we will begin the term exploring life cycles and reproduction in plants.
In History we will be studying the Ancient Greece. We will focus on the legacy of the Ancient Greek culture and society in our world today.
